We thank Keir Starmer for his support over the past two years and look forward to working with the new leader of the Labour Party to achieve their manifesto promise to tackle suicide as one of the biggest killers in the UK.
With someone taking their own life every 90 minutes, the incoming Prime Minister must demonstrate an unwavering commitment to this urgent issue. Some of the things we want to see include delivering a Men’s Health Strategy that puts suicide prevention at its heart and holding online platforms accountable for their actions. Suicide rates have failed to fall in recent years, but the right leadership could change this.
